Katie Thompson of REcreate is the newest member of Cape Town Creatives. She specialises in bringing new life to discarded pieces of junk from by-gone era’s.
Graduating with a distinction from Design Time School of Interior Design in Cape Town, Katie Thompson has seven years experience in the design, furniture and fabric industry in London and Cape Town.
The inspiration behind Recreate was Katie’s passion and flair for transforming the ordinary to the extraordinary.
Katie never works within established stylistic boundaries. She creates an eclectic combination of styles, materials and finishes; this skill highlights her passion and her ability to find the intrinsic beauty and new, hidden purpose in the old, discarded items she chooses for her pieces.
A hoarder of all things useless, impractical, broken, colourful and shiny; Katie’s designs show tell tale signs of her Dadaist leanings.
By nature an extremely energetic, bubbly and creative individual, Katie’s energy filters through to her work and into her pieces and the lives of her clients.
